Redmond Ice Cream Vendors must now obtain a City Business License

According to the ordinance approved by council members last Tuesday, every local ice cream vendor will now be required to obtain a Redmond business license.

Complaints by residents led city officials to review regulations in place for ice cream vendors. "When we looked into it, it's one of those things that's so obvious, like the nose on your face," KTVZ quotes Mayor George Endicott saying. "It just suddenly came up and we researched it. We were not giving it adequate consideration. So now we are, and we did declare an emergency, so it goes into effect immediately."

In order to qualify for the license, vendors will have to limit their music level, use caution lights and take background checks.
